Why did the founding fathers create the new constitution?

Basically, the Founding Fathers wanted a new constitution because the government under the Articles of Confederation proved to be unstable and inefficient. The document provided very little structure in terms of a federal government. Each state used their own currency and there was little unity. Finally, with Shay's rebellion in Massachusetts and no standing army to counteract it, the Founding Fathers came to the conclusion that a new government and constitution needed to be drawn up which would give America a stronger federal government while still preserving state's rights. More input from FAQ Farmers: * The Founding Fathers wanted a new constitution because the current government of the Articles of Confederation was not working due to the balance of powers between state and federal governments. The document gave state governments too much power and left the federal government helpless in both defending and caring for American interests. This eventually led to almost no unification of the states. Two parties emerged. The federalists, who lobbied for a strong central government, and the anti-federalists who emphasized state and individual rights. The two parties compromised and worked together to ratify the new Constitution that granted more power to a federal government and granted less power (but still protected) to the states. * After the Shay's Rebellion, the Fouding Fathers realized how weak the Articles of Confederation was. The federal government was powerless to stop the rebellion and Congress had little power. Some weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation included that was no chief executive, Congress had no power to tax citizens directly, no power to draft an army, had no national court system, no power to settle arguments among states, and many more. This led to the Constitutional Convention (started by Alex Hamilton), where the AoC was scrapped and a new constitution was written.


What if Napoleon had a B-52 at the Battle of Waterloo?

He could have won a lot easier. And this would happenDefeats Britain and Russia in 1816In 1842 he dies suceeded by his son (who lives until 1921)His son's son takes his place at 25, defeat's the Nazi's and the Soviet'sDefeats North Korea and VietnamMakes a deal with America-- OR --Nothing...as he would not have had the jet fuel to fly it, the runway to get it airborne, the flight crew to work the controls, the ground crew to load the bombs that they didn't have anyway, and so on.If he had it parked on the battlefield somewhere, maybe the best he could hope for would be to have a version of the B-52 with the tail machine guns (I think they'd be twin .50 cal?), enough bullets, and the plane pointed in the right direction (backwards). This gun and the shock of seeing that BUFF (B-52 nickname - Big Ugly Fat Fu...Fellow) in all its silver glory (unless it had the green or the grey scheme) would have either turned the tide of battle, or gotten him burned as a witch.-- OR --It would depend on which one of them it was - the bassist, for example, was awesome!


What was the achievement of public school desegregation primarily attained through?

Integration in the public schools was primarily attained through legal challenges to segregation laws and policies in the federal court system, culminating with the Supreme Court cases Brown v. Board of Education, (1954) and Brown v. Board of Education II, (1955). Although the Court declared "separate but equal" unconstitutional, many southern school districts resisted desegregation until Congress passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, giving the federal government a means of enforcing the Supreme Court's decisions.


What bad things did Franklin Delano Roosevelt do?

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt authorized the internment with Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942, which allowed local military commanders to designate "military areas" as "exclusion zones," from which "any or all persons may be excluded." This power was used to declare that all people of Japanese ancestry were excluded from the entire Pacific coast, including all of California and most of Oregon and Washington, except for those in internment camps. In 1944, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the exclusion orders, while noting that the provisions that singled out people of Japanese ancestry were a separate issue outside the scope of the proceedings. The United States Census Bureau assisted the internment efforts by providing confidential neighborhood information on Japanese Americans. The Bureau's role was denied for decades but was finally proven in 2007.

What is the probability of after six girls born the next child being a girl?

There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes. Unfortunately there is no readily available research into the genders of seven or more children to establish the experimental probability for such an outcome. However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a girl is approx 0.48, then the probability of the seventh child being a girl is 0.48.
